I’ve got an idea for a horror game where the player is an AI assistant, similar to Alexa or Google Mini. Initially, everything seems innocent, with tasks like telling the time or reporting the weather. However, things take a turn as the game starts to gaslight the player into thinking they aren’t a real AI, but a human in a simulation being trained as an AI assistant. The game creates psychological horror by making the player question, “Am I a real human or in a simulation?” There could even be a cutscene where a technician walks into a data center and casually presses the delete button, amplifying the player’s unease.
